It could be IB. If it is, you should get a + test in 2-4 days. Or it could be AF starting. Just starting different than she usually does. AF can and does change from cycle to cycle. It's super common for this to happen. A lot of women spot right before AF starts, myself included on some cycles. I started following the method from http://pregnancyhours.com and without doubt, 2 months later I'm pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy until now.
